User Comment:Special Thanks to Larry Woods for this short review...soon he'll most likely have pictures toWe tried out an Esquif"Blast" on the Deerfield Saturday (a 13' tandem openboat with a very flat bottom, a unique double chineand a lot of tumblehome). It really was a "BLAST". o:) "A shock wave! The Blast is the most radical tandem canoe available on the market. Similar to the Nitro but longer (13'), it allows an expert duo to negotiate even the most extreme waters, whether running drops, surfing, or stopping in tiny eddies. The Blast will change your way of paddling in tandem! When it comes to solo paddling, this canoe is the ideal choice for heavier paddlers or for those who want to carry lots of camping gear on a turbulent river."
